Lifespan, longevity, and ageing
provided by AnAge articles
Observations: Little is known about the longevity of these animals. They have been reported to live up to 6.2 years in the wild (http://www.pwrc.usgs.gov/BBL/homepage/longvrec.htm). Considering the longevity of similar species, however, maximum longevity could be significantly underestimated. Unverified reports suggest these animals may live up to 32 years in the wild (http://www.seaworld.org/).
